Is this able to be used on 240Volts (South Africa) ?

This machine has a 110 plug and no manuel switch that goes from 110 to 240. 240 would probably fry the wiring in this small appliance, sorry. I have welded and plasma cut with 240 before. We run on AC current here in the US, not DC. Why don't you try to contact the manufacturer directly and ask if the have another appliance better suited to your market. Sorry, I do not have anymore ideas. Martha

No! it's only rated for 120vac if you run it on 240 you'll burn it up. I asked an electrician and this is his answer. I hope this helps you.

This is for use on 110-120 VAC, 60 Hz., 6.5 amps, single phase. It will not operate on 220-240 VAC.

Maybe it can work for 240 in Europe with a converter? Not sure, haven't tried that. Only using it in America for now :)

im pretty sure no but you can buy a voltage adaptor that plugs into your 240 outlet and converts it to a 120 voltage shop on line at parts express.com or find a electronic store and ask them this should work out for you

Yes, I am in Sri Lanka and we use 240v and it works fine. Take care.Best regardsSevandhi

Looks like you can; the unit itself is marked "AC 100-240V". It has a North American plug (polarized two-prong), though, so you might need an adapter.

No. It is rated for 120 volt single phase. You would have to reduce the 240 volt to 120 volts.

It is not adaptable to 240v, but 240v is readily adaptable to 120v. Consult an electrician.

Yes, though I haven't tried it myself at that voltage.I say so because I pulled the power plug out of the socket and looked at the label. "Input: 100 - 240 v, 50/60 Hz." The 50/60 Hz part suggests to me that they were trying to be compatible with European power.Hope this helps.Richard S (minor in EE)

This power adapter does not accept 240 volts. It can only be used with a standard usa 115 volt ac 60 hz receptable.

No, it will not work on 240v - Transformer is only rated and to be used on 120v. Ok

It's 115 volts... So you will need a transformer or some other converter to use it with 240v

this particular model is rated at 110 volt AC 60 cycle switching US Canada North America you're not going to be able run on the 220 240 volt 50 cycle. from New Zealand you have to have a localized version

If on the product you can read 110 -240 volt you can use it, otherwise big surprise. I burned several items. Now I use for an amplifier (music-instruments) for example a 1500 Watt converter which I ordered in Germany.

If there is a switch on the back that will allow you to switch to 240 then yes. Otherwise you will need to use a converter to step the voltage down.

Unfortunately, it does not accept 240V; only 120V. Nevertheless, if you are really interested in the product, buy a voltaje converter along with it. The "Simran SMF-200 Deluxe 200 Watts Step Down Voltage Converter for International Travel to AC 220V/240V Countries" worked just fine for me in a trip to Europe several years ago.

Mine came with a 120vac to 5vdc adapter. I assume that you could find a 240 to v adapter.
